Matteforge Advanced Matte PLA has a unique Matte finish resulting in a printed object with nearly invisible layer lines.

From the manufacturer:

REDUCE VISIBILITY OF PRINTED LAYER LINES

MatteForge is a new filament that produces a beautiful matte, low gloss finish right off the print bed.

This innovative filament produces a finish unlike any other filament. MatteForge reduces the visibility of printed layer lines and gives a professional appearance to all prints. This is achieved whilst enhancing the contrast between light and shadow to highlight fine details. This highly desirable effect makes MatteForge perfect for industrial and product design, and technical engineering models.

BEAUTIFUL MATTE FINISH

We decided to launch MatteForge as we were tired of the usual glossy finish associated with almost all PLA based materials.

MatteForge gives an enhanced matte finish that exceeds even the best ABS filaments but has the ease of printability associated with PLA. This is done without the need for additives that might weaken the filament.

MECHANICAL PROPERTIES

Not only does MatteForge have a stunning low gloss finish, it also has very good mechanical properties such as high impact resistance and good flexural strength.

MatteForge is very easy to print so is great for both beginners and printing professionals. As it is PLA based it does not warp, but more importantly MatteForge has no odour.

MATTEFORGE SETTINGS

MatteForge is very easy to use and has the same print settings as typical PLA. MatteForge is compatable with even the most basic 3D printers and a heated bed is not required.

The Best PLA!

After many spools of filament passed, this is still the best filament I've tested so far. Thank you Printed Solid for your fast shipping!

Best Tough PLA around!

I print a lot of items for photography and this Matte PLA is perfect. It will be replacing all of my other black Tough PLA.

Flat black, bought for telescope parts

I have had this for a few years, and I am finally getting around to writing a review. My primary purpose for purchasing it was for telescope parts. Specifically, I didn't want the shine of normal filaments causing light reflections. I have used it to make filter holders (to hold down 36mm filters in my color filter wheel(CFW)), filter slot plugs (for empty positions in the CFW), light masks (to block extraneous light since I have a m43 sensor), and various other things. I am now in the process of making a longer lens hood for a 85mm lens. A temp tower printed fine from 180C to 220C. Is it really that matte? Well.... The matte finish is more noticeable on top surfaces. Matteforge got some pretty shiny PLA for their comparison videos. Matteforge's black is certainly not shiny, and it isn't Vanta Black. Per kg, this is one of the least expensive matte black filaments available, although I haven't compared print quality against those other manufacturers.
